Buyer Beware VIN W1NYC6BJ4MX411930
did a deal over the phone on Friday and was assured car was in good condition. Drove 2 hours on Saturday to pick-up the car and about 5 feet away you can see the orange peel on the paint. Walking up to the car the entire driver side was resprayed poorly with contamination in multiple spots. Very surprised for a CPO car and at a MB dealership. Just wanted other buyer to beware of this paintwork with a clean carfax on W1NYC6BJ4MX411930

Car sales man are the lousiest and the sleeziest of all the professionels out there. I have bought several cars out of state and every time I do that, I make sure there's no resprayed panels and yet three times they made me cover over 600 miles only to find out the car has had paint work.
Bell Audi dealership in NJ --worst of all the friggen dealerships.
Marshall Goldman delaership out of OHIO
Independent delaership out of Miami, FL
They obviously want you to come over and then give you like $100-$150 discount and try to sell you the car that you don't want to buy
Glad you saw it in person
